Anyway, this filk comes from Simon and Garfunkel's Patterns, off of Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Thyme.

RibbonsApologies to Simon and Garfunkel

The knife moves quickly, with the crash of falling codeDeftly severing servers cutting gamers from the nodeAnd the light from a campfire shows a ribbon in his hairIt's a symbol of his sickness as he stands on bolders there

In a crowded game arcade in a crowded Mega-townShe's challenged her new sensei and made him look a clownChoosing her own game - it's Super Moe BallHer ribbons fly about as "Master" takes his fall

Leaving the bath house for the robot to eat her pieThere her ribbons tell of losses at the end-point of a knifeThen her foe, at the booth, sees what his ally sawAnd her ribbons tell a story showing ev'ry flaw

Now the ribbons have all snuck into ev'ry storylineBut it's fitting that they should for they've hacked into our mindsLike the zombies of his dreams or a sad girl in the snowOur comic's full of ribbons that can scarcely be controlled
